At ~60 that's time to refresh thunder and grab blizzard 4
frozen girder
So Blizzard 1 is to fill that 1 extra spot
agile laurel
However before then you need a little bit of filler
frozen girder
But there's almost always an extra ad I could throw Thunder onto
agile laurel
The alternative is sitting on your ass and waiting for the mp to regen but that's bad habits
use the aoe thunder
2/4
agile laurel
iirc, thunder 1/3 can only BE applied to one target?
or am i misremembering
oh nvm it's just that it doesn't stack
but still, use thunder 2/4 for aoe
if you're not used to final fantasy spell naming then blm can be a bit confusing to understand based on the spell names alone

Hey y'all! So I've been playing for 6 months as paladin (main) and marauder/dark knight. I wanna go for a dps class but i can't decide. Which would be a good transition for me?

For AoE do I use: Fire 3 -> Fire 2... -> Freeze -> Thunder 2 -> Fire 3 -> Fire 2...

the BLM levelling rotation image from earlier should have a section for AoE
it depends on your level

Don’t think that’s a thing. If it is, then check the HUD Layout settings for the inventory menu

That brings up all relevant UI settings for it, so if it’s anywhere it’s there

Where am I supposed to get lvl 1 gear for retainers and weapons?
faint flare
Vendors in main cities
twilit karma
Glamour can be purchased in Mor Dhona or in Vesper Bay for gil (just lets you craft glamour prisms, you can skip it if you want)
Demimateria, Master I, and Mater II are also in Mor Dhona. Demimateria requires Demimateria to get, the other two require you to craft an HQ item. But they're pretty tough so if you're not over leveled (like at least 60 or so) skip them for now
The rest, III-VIII can all be obtained via yellow crafters scrips in any area with a scrip exchange
forest lark
Fine, gear is managable
twilit karma
VIII is the most important to have for endgame crafting
forest lark
But lvl 1 weapon, wjere?

twilit karma
But if you're serious don't buy white scrip gear. It's trash and can't make the final tier recipes
(this is normal for every expansion)

White scrip gear is more for helping to make the crafted set to make the endgame stuff
Or just as decent end stuff if you don’t care about 3-4 star stuff
twilit arch
it links to lodestone, which you can easily switch to english

I'm surprised it even can make the 490 set tbh

spare sapphire
of ast and whm, which would you expect to cast more gcd heals in a dungeon
remote lintel
depends on a lot of things
spare sapphire
depends on a lot of things
does assuming lvl 70+ with same party help at all?
remote lintel
not really
because it depends on how good the party is
and dungeons are easy so its unlikely they ever need gcd heals at all

spare sapphire
well I agree for whm, but I'm leveling ast so I was just wondering about this particular point of difference

hearty rover
are zodiac and anima weapons fairly easy to get now? (for glamour purposes)
twilit arch
zodiac is still fairly annoying
and you're gonna need gil for the novus stage, unless you're really willing to spiritbond yourself, and zodiac stage if you don't have crafters leveled
anima on the other hand is incredibly easy, and is basically a giant poetic grind
hearty rover
ah, how about the eurekan weapons?
boreal storm
Step 3 of anima takes 80,000 GC seals if you’re lazy
twilit arch
only really annoying step for it will most likely be the crystal sand stage, since if you don't have a 50 crafter/gatherer then getting sands can be a bit annoying
eureka is also going to be a bit of a grind
like all of the relic weapons are grinds
flat out
but imo anima > eureka >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>zodiac

the hassle of switching multiple pieces of the same kind usually isn't worth it
its more like people figure out universal meldsets for a role instead
fast talon
'cause like i just thought about Black Mage, iirc they're the only caster that wants spell speed right? at least moreso compared to summoner and red mage.
so i imagine they'd meld differently than the other two
twilit arch
yes but there have been universal meld sets for people who want to play all three

does the same apply for tanks? im mostly a tank main but have yet to check what the meld priority is for each individual tank
remote lintel
the only difference is that if youre playing war you meld det instead of dh iirc

war tends to want no dhit at all

you pick either a gnb sided or a war sided one

zinc orbitBOT
fast talon
you pick either a gnb sided or a war sided one
but choosing one isn't gonna severely gimp the other, right? i'm guessing at that point the differences only start to apply in like competitive raiders and stuff
little swift
the thing that is really affects is whether the war will have dhit in its meldset or if the gnb/pld/drk have less of it
thorn totem
So I currently am playing the free trial to test the game out. Should I jump straight to buying shadowbringer or would I have to get the complete editions first. Im kinda clueless on what I should buy first to get the complete content.
remote lintel
hold on i got this
Starter edition: This is the base game. Includes only A Realm Reborn (the base game) and Heavensward (the first expansion). Your level will cap at 60. Buying this and registering it to Mog Station also grants you 30 free days of subscription time.
Shadowbringers: This is the dlc. Includes both Stormblood (the second expansion) and Shadowbringers (the third expansion). This gives you the rest of the game. You need to own the Starter Edition in order to register Shadowbringers. You cannot register dlc for a game you do not own.
Complete Edition: Both the Starter Edition + Shadowbringers, in one package. This is for people who want to buy the whole game at once.
Shadowbringers Collector's Edition: ONLY dlc + some extra digital goodies. Includes Shadowbringers (and Stormblood) along with some digital cosmetic items related to the Shadowbringers expansion. Note that each expansion has its own collectors edition, which you can buy at any time from Mog Station if you own that expansion.
tldr you need the base game and shadowbringers
thorn totem
So im assuming the free trial=starter edition?
remote lintel

to add on to this, the other that might change how comfy certain jobs are is the skill speed tiering that is resulted in shared meldsets.
hasty musk
no
remote lintel
the free trial is the TRIAL
thorn totem
Oh
fast talon
content wise, they are very similar, the free trial comes with about 95% of the content in the starter edition i would say, as you only lose social aspects (friend lists, free companies, buying/selling the market board) in the trial
but as far as content goes, you'll have access to everything the starter gives you
hasty musk
keep in mind that as soon as you register the code for the base game, you can't go back to the free trial, even if you're still below level 60

the important thing here is to make sure you can fit 5 fell cleaves inside every inner release. and to make sure you can comfortably do the right amount of gcds to make a 60s loop as pld/gnb
thorn totem
Appreciate the advice
twilit arch
and complete everything that's not coil, savage, or ultimates (or current extremes)
teal dragon
welp alrite
little swift
war has a lot of flexibility here in that you can accomplish the 5FC in IR with at slowest 2.45gcd (with perfect ping/play)
but prefers faster for comfort and upheaval gcd divisions
but pld has a more strict preference
currently favouring 2.42/2.4
mostly for the purposes of fight alignment
fast talon
What is the 60s loop? Is it from the CD of FoF/Requisecat of Paladin?
little swift
basically you go between buffed physical phase to magic phase to unbuffed physical phase
inside FoF you want 2 goring blades and 2 royal authority combos at your level
1 of royal blades replaced by 3 atonements later
the 60s loop comes from figuring out what you can drop/use inside it to fit the correct number of gcds
at 2.4 gcd
thats exactly 25 gcds every minute in a perfect uptime situation
in fof you fit 11 of those gcds
the outside of fof you do another 9 from your basic combos
and that leaves 5 gcds inside requiescat
to give an example
fast talon
so Paladin wants to have 2.42/2.4? can't be faster? 'cause I just checked and apparently my paladin is at 2.35 (warrior is 2.31 because of a slightly better weapon i think)
little swift
you're in the middle of leveling
this kinda stuff won't be quite right until you have access to gearing/melding that won't be quickly replaced
btw this is what it would work out to
so every minute your buffs get pushed back by about 1 gcd as a result
little swift
that is one example of drifting
just your ogcds not being used on time and being pushed later
fast talon
alright, thanks for all the information, has been real insightful
little swift
i'm sorry i can't go too much more in-depth about paladin

Thank you
wintry chasm
can we get Christmas gear from this event?
If you got Christmas gear from a previous event then you can buy it back from a vendor but the event this year gives a mount specifically
twilit arch
no, this year's reward is mount and housing items
wintry chasm
If you want a Christmas outfit you'll need to look at the Mogstation optional items since that's where old seasonal event items go

I'm starting to think my retainers are gonna be back and mail still wont arrive xd
This is the first time I wait over 20 minutes, I bought mount last month and it was delievered pretty fast, maybe cause mog was on maintenance few minutes ago
marble drift
Try logging out
forest lark
Its 2 costumes, 2 sets of 10 dye pits and a reindeer set
Dye pots*
I did try twice.
forest lark
I guess, maybe its slow now because cash ahop website was on maintenance

after u get the mount is that pretty much all for the event?

mint adder
What are these Aether Currents? I know i need to search em out, but why?
twilit arch
You need them to fly in the expansion zones
mint adder
in game explanation didnt really say
ahhh so thats why i cant fly
lol they give you your first flying moung then immediately take it away haha
twilit arch
all mounts can fly, by the by
fresh lodge
All mounts can fly
faint flare
Flying is a zone by zone bases
Arr just unlocks flying after clearing Ultimate weapon. Aether currents is the original and main way for it in expansions zones after it was first added in heavensward

how long does it usually take for new items in the mogstation to get a discount, like a year?

Does it matter whether or not you finish crafting something on good or excellent condition?
twilit arch
no
good and excellent conditions are important when you're using quality skills
not for progress

Does the Landsaint (white scrip) set's '4 equipped: GP +5' bonus only apply when one has 4 accessories or does it activate with a mix of accessories and legs/body/etc.?

So I am a story skipper lol
I was wondering. Is there a channel. Similar to Noble for the people who play wow. Who basically just explains the story? I know I could watch every cutscene. But I would rather a channel that explains them instead. Is there any channel for that?
faint flare
Pins in #archived-lore-spoilers has summaries
cedar compass
Story is way too long for that
rigid narwhal
i skipped the story, now i dont understand the story. how can i understand the story?
cedar compass
There's a video series that's pretty good to catch up
fast talon
HEELP WHYYY
what are you trying to do, buy the game? if so, try using mobile data, its a longshot but whenever i got errors trying to buy the game on their site thats what fixed it for me
teal dragon
yes
teal dragon
mobile huh okay
cedar compass
Just watch the ones from that guy (comicsroeian), same for heavenward and stormblood
ruby willow
Cool. He have a SHB one too?
teal dragon
is mog on maint tho?
ruby willow
Cool cool. Vus yeah I wana know the story. But going through MSQ puts me to sleep
cedar compass
You must have strong mental fortitude I'd you went through all those quests without context :D
ruby willow
Well half way through HW I bought a skip lol
ruby willow
And j mean. I could do it on an alt or the NG+
But that does not fix the problem that the quests themselves are boring
pearl spindle
ruby willow
I mostly raid, mount farm, I like dungeons and leveling classes a lot.
And j am super big into the rp scene.
I just find the style of quests that ff14 has kinda boring
twilit arch
#general-discussion @pearl spindle
rigid narwhal
so you've reached a point where you need to know the general lore to rp?
ruby willow
I mean. Not necessarily. I am genuinly interested. But knowing lore would help
cedar compass
You only need to know that emet-selch is bae
ruby willow
Especially when someone says they are from Ala miga and I just go "Ala what?"
Or they talk about Zenos and I say "oh the guy from the 70 dungeon?"
All I know is emet is a bad dude who did some bad shit to me involving the white monsters or something.
cedar compass
Go to general discussion btw

my friend and i want to marry in the game, we have a really funny scenario planned for which we need as many guests as possible. what is the best way to find people to join besides FC?
twilit arch
probably just shout in like limsa or crystarium/eulmore, say you're giving out wedding invitations
tropic frigate
Not sure if this should go into #technology-discussion but my whole pc crashes during the final boss cutscene of Shadowbringers. Is this a familiar issue around here?
twilit arch
i'd throw it down in #technology-discussion as well, since more of the tech smart people don't really look at this channel
tropic frigate
Gonna try to lower all the specs and see if that helps
twilit arch
unfortunately tho i've not had that issue or heard anyone having that issue myself
tropic frigate
It's easy solveable by skipping the whole thing... but I'd rather finish watching the thing
halcyon tulip
Have you tried reinstalling the game, that might be the last option though
tropic frigate
No, it's just this particular cutscene
proud willow
Yeah, it sounds like it could be from a corrupted file. Not anything common that comes up frequently though
halcyon tulip
Also updating your gpu driver might help
tropic frigate
Lowering the specs helped

Can anyone tell me what emote is te one that male lala is doing

what does... repping mean?
wintry chasm
I assume the context to this is like "repping up" right?
fluid glacier
like during pf raiding
i only seen the term thrown around when someone been wiping/trapping party

I've....never heard of this
fluid glacier
ah that make sense

is there anyway to limit dl speed on the launcher?
pulsar hollow
Is there any reason why I should prefer buying the blue over the white weapon? (WHM)
pulsar hollow
Alright, so its different to other games
warped nest
Specifically Vitality and Mind
pulsar hollow
was wondering already if Im just blind, lol
hardy gull
ah that make sense
It means “Replacing” . if you hear it in pf then its probably used because someones playing badly and needs to be replaced
warped nest
@pulsar hollow not important until you hit max level
warped nest
While leveling, just look for more Vitality (your health) and Mind (Healer Damage and healing power)
fluid glacier
It means “Replacing” . if you hear it in pf then its probably used because someo...
ahhhh. ty
warped nest
One more thing you need to know: crafted gears can be NQ and HQ, HQ have the correct stat matching their ilvl
If a gear can be NQ/HQ, you will see a tooltip at the bottom of their item description to check NQ/HQ stats
pulsar hollow
alright, Ill keep that in mind, tyty
warped nest
Good luck and have fun
twilit arch
depends on whether you need/want to hit a certain gcd tier

im on lvl 15 rn. when do i get to the main city? or can i just go there right now?

You start in one of the three main cities
level 15 
will bring you to the other two
Just follow the quest
thick saffron
oh okay. thank you. also, when does the story pick up? the current main scenario quests i have now are a bit boring. im sorta just running back and forth
warped nest
You are a nobody and are currently building up your reputation
You don't get dragged into more dire incidents until lvl 25 ish
I will not be specific on when, that's for you to experience

I have a friend who wants to buy the game, which product does he need to buy? i'v done this quite a long time ago and i cant exactly remember which ones are required

Free Trial: 1-60, no subscription required, social and inventory limitations
Starter Edition: same as above, just no restrictions. Come with 30 day sub, need subscription to keep playing.
Shadowbringers: 60-80 contents, required Starter Edition. Doesn't cost extra subscriptions
warped nest
thank you so much. yeah. i watched friends play and they're doing crazy dungeons...
I can understand that, you will get your first dungeon at lvl 15 , and they will become more and more challenging as you progress more story. Good luck and have fun.
hardy gull
thank you so much. yeah. i watched friends play and they're doing crazy dungeons...
Yeah dw , the ARR story is slow and tedious at times but it has its charm and is pretty important. The later expansions are really good tho , especially shadowbringers but dont rush through any of the msqs to get to the next one
thick saffron
thank you
hardy gull
Take the time to enjoy each expansions story for what it has to offer
forest lark
I personally loved heavensward more than shadowbringer, but all are really good
The most boring one for me was stormblood, i wanted to skip all dialogue there

Right, and there's no indicator to show the timer is up

I hate potd

Potd dies at 60

They're the same practically
halcyon tulip
Bozja's not like potd, it's like eureka but way better
faint flare
Mix of both, eureka but deep dungeon for levelling
forest laurel
what does more damage physical ranged LB or caster LB?
same potency. they're only good for:
- dungeons (especially wall to walls)
- comps with no melee because of DF
- ultimates (caster's LB3 is needed for UWU)

That's a general error, possibly a network issue, possibly a server issue.

been thinking of this for a while but what does it mean when a food item says something like CP +21% (Max 56)
faint flare
Appraising lost fragments gives you lost actions
faint flare
been thinking of this for a while but what does it mean when a food item says so...
Food gives you a percentage of a stat, to a maximum of the max listed
onyx kiln
okay
faint flare
So 21% of your CP will be increased, but no more than 56
Even if 21% is more than 56
